The Lyle came recommended to me by friends and I couldn't have been more thrilled with my stay. Room was gorgeous and spotless. Hotel was busy but quiet, which meant a lot coming from NYC. The entire staff was gracious, warm, and over-the-top accommodating -- so much that I ended up extending my stay a third night. Having lived in DC for many years I am always on the search for a chic hotel that also feels like home and The Lyle certainly fit that bill for me. A big shout out to Johnny P. who went out of his way to make me feel like a VIP.

Hotel's Favorite
My family and I visited DC for a long weekend to celebrate my mother-in-law. Our stay at the Lyle was nothing short of amazing. JOHNNY, the concierge, was the BEST! He treated my family like royalty. The hotel, restaurant and valet were 5 star. Johnny went above and beyond to make my kids and my handicap mother-in-law happy. The rooms were spacious and this was the only hotel to guarantee joined rooms. The food, drinks and Marcus at the restaurant did not disappoint. Thank you for a great experience. JOHNNY, YOU'RE AWESOME!

Dear 553kindrar, I think we should make this our mojo: Leave Lyle with a Smile! Thank you so much for your kind words. I hope that you give us the honor of being able to take care of you and your family again in the future. Johnny certainly hears "you're awesome" multiple times a day, but another one doesn't hurt :) Until next time, Irene Interiano. Asst. Front Office Manager.

We felt so welcome! The staff was incredibly kind. Special shout out to Johnny Peltzer, Front Office Supervisor, who is a great guy (even though he wore a Yankees hat). The rooms are quiet and beautifully furnished. The beds are super comfortable. I really liked the bar and restuarant. Their M-F happy hour has delicious drinks and snacks. For breakfast, the Lyle had a discount if you paid ahead ($10 for $25 credit) -- a great deal. And the food and coffee are terrific. Lots of locals come for brunch. It's that good.

Lyle is an amazing hotel and restaurant. I loved the neighborhood. This place is truly a gem. I can tell customer service is a very important factor here. The staff is amazing but I want to thank Marjory for being so kind and polite. Her patience and attentiveness made me feel at home. I definitely will be back.

We absolutely loved our stay at the Lyle. Super chic, understated, gorgeous decor, with an outstanding restaurant. Phenomenal location too. We arrived in our room to find a hand-written note, a bottle of wine and gluten-free, chocolate chip banana bread (three wonderful things!) The service was highly personalized, and we felt it was a home-away-from-home. For sure returning...

Johnny Pelzer is the main reason I’m giving this a 5 out of 5. But first, the location is fantastic—about a 6 min walk to Dupont Circle—the restuarant and bar are superb (breakfast was amazing), and the decor is fun. Plus they allow dogs. On our second evening, I knocked over a glass in the bathroom and it shattered all over the place. I went down to the front desk to ask if housekeeping could bring a vaccuum to help us clean up the glass. The person at the front, Johnny, let us know that housekeeping was gone for the night. But he offered to move us to another room and, in light of that inconvenience, wanted to put us in a larger room—a much larger room! Now this was my fault that we glass all over the bathroom around 11 pm, but Johnny did everything he could to turn this into a positive experience for us. Even helped us bring our things to the new room so late at night. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. It’s rare to see this kind of service these days, when you so often hear “I’m sorry, sir. Yes, I understand. Unfortunately, there’s nothing I can . . .” At this place, there was no hemming and hawing. Johnny just fixed it and left us feeling better than we ever expected we would by the end of the night.

Thank you for your outstanding review and for giving us a 5 out of 5 rating! We're thrilled to hear that Johnny made such a positive impact on your stay. We appreciate your kind words about our fantastic location, superb restaurant and bar, fun decor, and pet-friendly policy. We apologize for the glass incident in the bathroom, but we're glad that Johnny swiftly resolved the situation by offering a larger room and assisting with the room transfer late at night. His dedication to providing excellent service is truly amazing. Thank you for recognizing the exceptional service you received. We greatly appreciate your feedback and can't wait to welcome you back for another wonderful experience.

I consider myself a regular at this hotel. With good reason. I absolutely love it. The neighborhood, the rooms, the beds, the restaurant...and most importantly, the customer service. From the valet to the front desk to housekeeping, everyone here is top level. The neighborhood is lovely and quiet, yet super convenient to everything in the center of DC, steps away from Dupont Circle. The rooms are updated with the comfiest beds. And the restaurant is not only lovely to sit in, but also delivers delicious food. But again, I return to the staff. Every time we return, we are greeted with warmth and friendliness. Especially from Johnny P., who is by far the best to ever do it and keeps us returning. Because when we head to The Lyle, it is like heading home.
